To use another metaphor, it reminds me of Red Bull's last season. Verstappen complained about the car a lot, but only his teammate was getting slower. What's wrong with Perez? Why is he so slow? Is he stupid? Turns out, the car was getting worse and worse, but Verstappen was talented enough to still make it still look fast. Finally, the car got so bad, even Verstappen had trouble winning a race anymore.
Mahomes did not drive a fast car this season. He drove a mid-tier shitbox with enough skill to make it look fast. He finally went up against a better team and no longer had the race pace to keep up.

They're not mutually exclusive. He got us there and he also had one of his worst games professionally that significantly contributed to us losing. Just is what it is. Dust yourself off, fix the few glaring holes in our roster, and crack on.
